Patriot Russian Air Force Tupolev TU-134UBL RF-65733 1:200 Diecast Model

1:200 Diecast: Russian Air Force Tupolev Tu-134UBL RF-65733 Bort 31 (Patriot Models PT200009)

RF-65733 (serial 64450) is a Tupolev Tu-134UBL operated by the Russian Air Force, registered previously as RF-66090 and carrying tactical bort number 31. Like all Tu-134UBL aircraft, it carries the elongated Tu-22M3 bomber-type nose grafted onto a Tu-134 fuselage, serving as a crew trainer for Tu-22M Backfire and Tu-160 Blackjack bomber pilots. The airframe was photographed in service as recently as 2020.

Livery & Visual Details

The model depicts a two-tone scheme: light grey upper fuselage and wings, with a dark blue lower fuselage, engine nacelles, and full empennage. A thin tricolor stripe — blue, white, and red — runs horizontally along the fuselage dividing the two zones and wraps around the engine nacelles. The Russian Federation flag (tricolor horizontal stripes) is displayed prominently on the vertical stabilizer, with the registration "RF-65733" in white below it and also printed vertically on the stabilizer leading edge. The bort number "31" in red appears on the lower blue fuselage section. Wingtips carry bright red leading-edge accents. The two Soloviev D-30 turbofan pods are rear-mounted in the Tu-134's signature aft-cluster arrangement.

Model Craft & Collectibility

Patriot Models PT200009 is a 1:200 diecast with display stand, antenna fitted, capturing the Russian Air Force's operational two-tone grey and blue scheme. The Tu-134UBL is a low-production-run military derivative — Patriot Models is one of the very few manufacturers to release this type at any scale, and this paired release with PT200008 covers both of the only major Tu-134UBL operator air forces.
